Canada’s most wanted jobs of 2015 (and those that employers had the hardest time filling)

What do most Canadians want to do? Get paid to travel the world looking after air passengers’ needs and safety. For the third year in a row, ‘Flight Attendant’ was the most popular job title for job seekers.

The team at Workopolis analysed applications to millions of online job postings. We compared the number of applications per job post to determine the most and least popular jobs.
